That's only like 75 cups of Starbucks coffee.

I don't know why, but I feel like moonshine, either from the moon or from the bottle and one of these awesome whale stuffies! KateDurkin offers these cuties (and many other super sweet finds) in her Etsy shop. This puffy mammal is a very affordable at a mere $18 and would look so awesome in an underwater themed room (like my sons' surfer room)!

V-Day cards

2009-01-25T19:42:00.002-07:00

I found this excellent Etsy shop (Bodecia) with THE CUTEST cards! I had to buy some for my sons. Here's the most genius one (in my humble opinion) - it is perfect for my youngest whom we call "El Destructo" as he runs around everywhere throwing things on the floor and laughing a hearty evil laugh...

Frienemies

2008-10-17T20:15:00.004-06:00

The love/hate relationship between Sushi the puppy and Bozlee the king cat continues in a photo story board...

Sushi edges closer, looking ever so innocent. "Honestly, I'm just enjoying the sun, like yourself."

The challenger (Sushi) for the title of king: "I'm bigger than you... and I run this house" The Champion: "Wanna bet, you little swine?!"

The champion puts the smack-down on the challenger:
He didn't really - but it makes for good journalism (the real story - Sushi was freaking out trying to get Boz to play) Sushi looks like ALF in this picture

After mom intervenes, "I wasn't bugging Bozlee, honest!" (Evidence proves otherwise when you look at what she's holding.)

Victorian Vixen

2008-10-12T21:22:00.004-06:00

Etsy Noodle Decorations

2008-09-23T21:15:00.004-06:00

Oh no, I've found a new obsession on Etsy. I've seen them before, but I've always dreamed of dressing like this daily, not just for Halloween. However, since I'm a SAHM, the mail delivery companies may flag me as a psycho and stop delivering packages after seeing me dress like this. So for now (and until those lotto numbers come through), I'll just drool over all these awesome artistic hair accessories and hats. Take a gander:

annabronwyn: fleur fatale, phalaenopsis orchid fascinator for $71.00:

Topsyturvydesign: The Holly Victorian Day Hat for $199.00:

Feeling Renewed

2008-09-12T21:25:00.005-06:00

Etsy is so full of ingenious artists - I'm always amazed at the ability of the Etsians to "upcycle" items that most just give up on. Each of these items contains something that has been recycled. Take a gander:

Rock Hounding

2008-09-09T14:39:00.004-06:00

We went rock hounding a while back (looking for opal outside of Fruita, Colorado which is only about 1/2 an hour from us). Here's some of the few pics my we took...

This photo actually makes Sushi (the pup) look bigger than she actually is. She and my son Riley (seen here) are best buddies.

Riley hounding in the background - me and Gavin in the foreground

Us again - Gavin just wanted to be held the whole time - he was grouchy, poor little dude!

Riley thinks he's found the next million dollar gem...
